This resolution asks Kentucky's General Assembly to formally urge the U.S. Congress to establish an official accreditation process through the Department of Veterans Affairs for private companies that help veterans apply for and manage their benefits. Currently, no such federal pathway is described as existing, and the resolution calls on Congress to create one. It does not change Kentucky law but expresses the state legislature's position to federal lawmakers. Who it may affect: veterans seeking assistance from private companies with their federal benefits claims.
